His acting career began at the age of ten with the award-winning film Enlightenment Guaranteed by Doris Dörrie , in which his father and brother also appeared in front of the camera. He became known, however, through the role of Marlon in the film Die Wilden Kerle , in which his brother and father also played. He was also involved in four sequels.

His first album called Cookies was released on May 23, 2008 and is heading towards alternative pop rock. Bands like Queens of the Stone Age , Arctic Monkeys and Led Zeppelin are said to have been influential for the album, in stark contrast to brother Jimi Blue's rap-related music.

In 2009, Melchior played the leading role in the adaptation of Wedekind's Spring Awakening for the ZDF theater channel.

In 2012, Ochsenknecht hit the headlines when soldiers sent death threats to him via Facebook because of his involvement in the TV film Welcome to the War . The members of the German Armed Forces felt mocked by the controversial content of the film (German war effort as a comedy) and above all the broadcast date; The film ran on Easter Monday 2012, just two years earlier three paratroopers fell in a skirmish with insurgents on Good Friday .

Ochsenknecht has lived in Berlin since summer 2009 .
